Description
Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility soy candle brings the wit of classical literature to your reading shelf, hand poured in a reusable glass jar with a funny Janeite design.
It is for the reader who feels as deeply as Marianne and holds it together like Elinor, and it earns a knowing smile from anyone who has loved the Dashwood sisters.
- Natural soy wax blend with a clean, even burn
- Cotton wick with no zinc or lead
- Reusable glass jar you can keep long after the wax is gone
- Vegan and non toxic, made with USA sourced materials
Give it to the book club friend who rereads Austen every autumn or the English teacher who assigns the Dashwood sisters. It is a small, funny nod that any Sense and Sensibility reader will recognize on sight.

Care Instructions
Trim the wick to 1/4 inch before every burn. A short wick keeps the flame low and even and stops the glass from blackening.
- Keep a burning candle within sight, and keep it away from children and pets.
- Never burn the candle near flammable items.
- Burn on a heat resistant surface, away from drafts, vents, and ceiling fans.
- Do not burn for longer than 4 hours at a time.
- Stop burning once about 1/2 inch of wax is left in the jar.
- The jar gets hot. Let it cool completely before you move it.

Elinor would approve quietly
A pun Elinor would keep to herself and Marianne would shout
Dear Sense and Sensibility reader,
- Sick of book candles that smell like nothing in particular?
- Feel things as deeply as Marianne but file them like Elinor?
- Shopping for the friend who defends the Dashwood sisters like family?
The label reads Scent and Sensibility, with top notes of longing, betrayal, and a little suppressed rage..... the whole novel in one fragrance note. The wax underneath is the serious part, a natural soy blend hand poured into a reusable glass jar.

Before you ask
Sense and sensibility candle questions, answered
Is this a good Sense and Sensibility gift?
Yes, especially for the reader who is half Elinor, half Marianne. The joke lands on sight, and the soy candle underneath keeps earning shelf space after the laugh.
What does it smell like?
You pick the scent at checkout. Vanilla Bean and Comfort Spice suit fireside chapters, the lighter scents suit summer porch reading, and unscented keeps the label without the fragrance. Each one is chosen to sit behind a book, not overpower it.
What is it made of, and can it be personalized?
A natural soy wax blend with a cotton wick, no zinc or lead, in a reusable glass jar, amber or clear, in 4 oz, 9 oz, and 13.75 oz sizes.
How do I get the best burn?
Trim the wick to a quarter inch before each light and let the wax melt to the edges on the first burn. Soy rewards a little patience, like a slow burn romance.
When will it arrive?
Each candle is poured to order in 2 to 5 business days, then ships from the USA with tracking.
Add a little suppressed rage to the room
Longing and betrayal never smelled this good.
